Chapter 268: Defeating Cavalry with Foot and Adding Another County(1/2)

Hu Yanhe, who was watching the situation from behind, was astonished. He never expected that the Xia army had such a mature set of tactics. It was a classic battle in which infantry defeated cavalry.

First, through logistics, celestial phenomena, and cooperation with Huo Feiguang's lone cavalry, they were forced to initiate a decisive battle and take the initiative to enter the intersection of grasslands and hills.

This made the combat zone unfavorable for the charge of the cavalry group, which reduced the cavalry's combat effectiveness by 30% from the beginning.

What Hu Yanhe saw next was that 30,000 cavalry charged straight into the front of Xia's army. Whether it was the first wave of charge or the performance of both sides after the battle, it was really hard for him to accept.

The Xia army was lined up in front with large shields and heavy armor. They sat in front of the formation and were not allowed to get up. The rear was lined up with spearmen. The sunken inward formation of shields and spears was not only strong, but also chilling.

When the Jin Army cavalry sprinted to more than 200 steps, the divine arm bows began to fire. When they rushed to more than 100 steps, the crossbowmen who had strung the strings began to fire again.

Strong bows and powerful crossbows were fired one after another, and arrows rained down like rain. The senior officials of the Jin Army who were watching clearly realized that something was wrong.

What kind of crossbow? And what kind of arm strength does the Xia army on the opposite side have, so they can shoot so far?

When the Jin Army's cavalry, which suffered heavy casualties, charged to the front of the Xia Army's formation, all of its few heavy cavalrymen had already been killed, and their impact was no longer as powerful as it was at the beginning.

After waiting to break through the shield array and the gun forest, the Xia army's front row suffered heavy casualties. Some Xia soldiers only made one action of holding a shield or drawing a gun from the beginning to the end, but all the 30,000 cavalrymen were trapped in the "quagmire"

.

Nearly 40,000 imperial troops opened the door and immediately surrounded them, surrounding the retreat.

At this time, the most elite 5,000 demon demons appeared with Mo Dao and slaughtered these unimpactful cavalry. Of course, they were easy to do.

The lengthened and heavier Mo Dao appeared in this world for the first time. There was no similar weapon before. It was simply because it could not recruit so many soldiers and could not be lifted.

The current unspoken rules of the Xia Kingdom's military service are that only those who have completed physical training can join the Forbidden Army. Only those who have completed physical training can have the opportunity to serve as a corps commander, or even a commander. Only the day after tomorrow can they become a team leader and have an official status.

The starting point for the demon-suppressing army is the completion of physical training, and most of them are in the acquired realm. Only those in the innate realm can serve as battalion-level officers commanding five hundred people.

At first, the arrogant Jin army dared to put up a fight, and many people dismounted and formed formations. However, once Mo Dao's power was revealed, they were immediately killed to the point of being devastated and their morale collapsed.

As a member of the King of Jin's army, General Zhahe, who had an overview of the situation of the 30,000-strong army in front, saw that the army was in danger of collapse and immediately ordered a retreat.

"Keep your distance, shoot freely, don't dismount and fight on foot!"

"Quickly retreat!"

Hu Yanhe, who occupies a small high slope in the rear, can naturally see clearly what the situation is like on the front line.

Hu Yanhe eagerly asked the generals around him: "Quick, rush over when the second wave is ready. At this time, the Xia army is also in chaos!"

"Your Majesty, in response to the letter from General Junshan, one more stick of incense is needed to form the formation." The preparations were quickly reported, but the result was not satisfactory.

Hu Yanhe looked towards a low slope not far away. It was densely packed with people and horses. Most of the military formations were already in order, but a small half were being assembled and arranged.

If a cavalry charge wants to have impact, it must be from a high altitude. No matter how low the slope is, it is better than nothing.

The first batch of 30,000 people rushed out, and the second batch still took a certain amount of time to form the formation, no matter how fast it was. What's more, the real elites directly under the command were either in the first batch or around Hu Yanhe. The military discipline of the second batch was inevitably a bit worse.

At this time, Hu Yanhe fully understood Zhou Bai's sinister intentions. He decided to leave the fighting area alone. Now even the place and time for the cavalry charge have been clearly arranged for him.

The Jin people who have long been accustomed to criticize all kinds of force have never seen this kind of temple calculation, fighting purely at the disadvantage of being dumb.

"No more waiting, let Junshan dispatch immediately. At the same time, you lead ten thousand direct cavalry to break through from the side and be sure to crush the long sword army." Hu Yanhe took a deep breath. He knew that he could no longer be led by the nose and took out

He ordered the arrow to be handed over to the general at his side.

The black dragon flag of the Kingdom of Jin fluttered in the cold wind, and amid the rapid sound of the horn, more than 40,000 golden cavalry were mobilized.

In addition to the 10,000 cavalry sent to contend with Xia's cavalry, there were already less than 20,000 cavalry left with Hu Yanhe, which was considered the last reserve team.

Hu Yanhe, who has experienced countless battles of various sizes in the past two years, cannot help but fall into a very nervous mood.

He stared intently at the battlefield in front of Cangbei City, fearing that the situation was irreversible. After this defeat, he didn't know when he would regain his momentum.

But let's bet, no matter what those long swords are, he doesn't believe that a hundred thousand cavalry can really defeat the infantry.

The movements of most of the Jin army were quickly learned by both sides on the battlefield. The Jin army tried their best to resist, while the Xia army launched an even faster offensive.

"Qu Zhi, you lead five hundred bodyguards, and you and Gao Hu kill that general." Under the city, Zhou Bai, motionless as a mountain, stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhahe, who was under guard.

Beside him, Qu Zhi, who had always been silent, quickly took orders and mounted his horse, leading five hundred men into the battle formation.

Five hundred bodyguards joined the battlefield the day after tomorrow, which was a very obvious fighting force. Their constant forward momentum attracted many Jin troops to block them, which greatly reduced the pressure on Gao Hu who was rushing at the front on the other side.

"General Gao, I have ordered you to kill that golden general!"

Qu Zhi's voice, full of vitality, was like thunder piercing his ears. How could Gao Hu not understand what it meant.

Outside the world, there seemed to be a patch of starlight, and the Demon-Conquering Army commanded tall tigers, white horses, and silver spears. As if they were in an uninhabited land, they suddenly erupted with gunfire across the four fields.

The soldiers who were guarding the body were like scarecrows who could not fight back. They fell down in a state of confusion.

This is the power that a Xiantian realm warrior with a star destiny can exert on the battlefield. Killing people is like mowing grass. It is no exaggeration.

"Hey, General Jin, my king wants you to die, but you still dare to live!"

Gao Hu suddenly slapped the horse's back, jumped ten feet, and hit the fleeing Zhahe like a meteorite.

Zhahe can be reused by Huyanhe. In addition to his good command ability, he himself is also in an innate state that has rarely been broken through by the Jin Kingdom after his spiritual energy was revived.

Being so humiliated by the enemy general and unable to escape, Zhahe angrily drew his sword to fight. The sword energy burst out with all his strength, the sound waves were rolling, and the power was terrifying.

"Even if you can't defeat the enemy, you can always get support from your subordinates, and then the army will be deployed..."

However, in the next moment, he only saw the silver gun whizzing towards him, and he lost consciousness in an instant.

Bang~

The collision between the two innate forces caused the surrounding area to suddenly become quiet. The Jin army who came for support turned pale and did not dare to take another step forward.

It turned out that Zhahe, the powerful general in the grassland, had been nailed to the spot by a silver spear without making any sound.

Being massacred too much by the Mo Dao Formation of the Demon-Subduing Army, the morale of the army, which was only maintained through the prestige of Zhahe, completely collapsed.

In a world of spiritual change, the seals in the mortal world were liberated, and the battle between hundreds of thousands of armies actually affected the celestial phenomena.

Black clouds threaten to destroy the city, seeming to submerge the land into the abyss. The north wind whistles and the snow falls.

The snowfall date judged by the Taoist officials of the two countries arrived early, and pieces of snowflakes soaked in bloody military evil began to fall, but the battle between the Jinxia and Jinxia armies below became more and more intense.

The first wave of the Jin army that collapsed desperately attacked the military formation surrounded by the Xia Kingdom's Jin army in order to avoid Mo Dao's massacre.

Originally, it was impossible to break through the siege with an unorganized and undisciplined attack, but a hole was opened in the rear where most of the Jin army fled.

They didn't suspect anything was wrong, they just felt that the air outside was much fresher and smelled of vitality.

Immediately afterwards, the tens of thousands of golden soldiers who escaped found that the Mo Dao behind them seemed to be chasing them again, and they had no choice but to run away for their lives.

Throw away your weapons and take off your armor. You don't need to run very fast, you just need to be faster than your teammates around you.

But as he ran, the Jin soldiers behind him noticed that the front had slowed down, gradually stopped, and finally even turned around and cursed.

"Stop rushing forward!"

"Are all the people in the back pigs?!"

Some golden soldiers had good eyesight. They saw the golden soldiers in front of them turning around, and their faces changed drastically, as if they had witnessed some extremely terrifying scene.

There was no need to ask this time, because the terrifying scene came quickly.

Dong dong dong~

The shaking of the earth became louder and louder, and the neighing of the war horses was deafening.

The golden-armored cavalry, their swords drawn, tens of thousands of iron hooves stamped on the ground, thunder and lightning roared, shaking the battlefield, and their sharp edges were revealed.

Is it his own family? The fleeing golden soldiers suddenly realized that they must block the road and not be trampled into pulp?

Many smart people immediately wanted to run to both sides, but the time to release them was controlled by Xia Jun, and it was too late.

More than 10,000 golden soldiers suddenly rushed out and were scattered in the center of the battlefield. Junshan, the commander of the second wave of golden cavalry, did not fail to see it, as did Hu Yanhe and the other golden generals.

However, the upward-downward charge process of a large-scale cavalry regiment cannot be reversed at all. Once an order is given to suspend the charge at this time, it may bring even more disastrous consequences.

All Junshan and the other generals could do was to strictly order the troops to fight against each other. Those defeated soldiers were not Jin warriors.

As the saying goes, when thousands of horses are galloping, the heaven and earth are afraid; when thousands of troops are galloping, ghosts and gods are worried.

Tens of thousands of golden troops spread like wolf smoke, furious like dragons, with heads held high and chests high, pressing forward against the enemy.

Facing the tightly arranged Xia Army array before, the cavalry group's charge showed no power at all, but in front of more than 10,000 scattered golden soldiers, they showed their fangs.

Bang bang, waves of unparalleled black tide submerged all those who stood in the way within a moment.

When the horses' hooves trample them, only broken corpses will be left on the ground, and it will be difficult to find any survivors.

But after being blocked by his own family, not only the impact force has been greatly reduced, but Xia Army has also used this time to reorganize their formation.

The tight shield wall and forest of guns, as well as the missing Mo Dao team hidden in the military formation, all made the Jin soldiers who had just experienced a massacre feel a little uneasy.

The companions who died under their horses' hooves had plunged into this army's formation before.

"The king has an order. If you behead someone of the first level, you will be rewarded with ten sheep. If you behead someone of the third level or above, you will be given a woman and promoted! If you capture and kill the Xiahou, you will be granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households!"

"My sons of Daijin, there has never been an obstacle in front of our iron hoof. Have you ever heard that a foot can defeat a horse?" Junshan, who is also in the Xiantian realm, encouraged his true energy to shout to the maximum volume, striving to boost the morale of his subordinates.

morale.

"No! No!" Faced with the bounty and the "fact" that the cavalry must win, the golden soldiers responded in unison, finally suppressing the fear in their hearts.

"In that case, then crush them!"
